I'm a passionate person. Here are some things I keep up with because I care about them.

•

Music

Particularly rap music, it's constantly evolving and I love how it can make me feel. I also love finding new albums, and putting them on repeat until I'm tired of them.

•

Shoes

This may be a weird one, but I found them so interesting and cool. I own more shoes than most people and I know a lOt about Adidas shoes.

•

Basketball

Free agency has been nuts. And so much fun to keep up with. It's like if politics were really cool and involved dunks.

•

Dogs

Who doesn't love dogs? I mean really.

•

Adidas

The brand with the 3 stripes. I so love adidas shoes and cleats and jerseys and I just cannot express it. We've got an inside joke that I'm sponsored by Adidas and man do I wish I was.

•

The Warriors

2 Championships in 3 years. 2 consecutive MVPS and a DPOY. A dynasty. I've been watching since they had a losing record with Mark Jackson. And man, are they fun to watch.

•

Food

Another weird one but I just love good food. It helps that both of my parents are great cooks but like I love good pasta or pizza or Chinese food but basically just good food.

•

Chance the Rapper

He's literally such a good dude. By far my favorite rapper and such a good guy. His charity is giving away 30,000 stuffed backpacks to children this weekend. What did we do to deserve him?

•

Soccer

It can get boring, it can get tiring, and it can get downright tough, but man do I love it. With all the hours I've put into soccer, I love it so much when my instincts take over. There is almost nothing like the feeling of scoring a perfect goal.

•

Marvel movies

One of the more nerdy things on this list. I'm so many years into them and I love the adrenaline that comes from them and the connections between them. They're so cool and I'm so many movies in I just can't stop myself sometimes.

Leila Wilhelm

This is my girl. I think about her constantly and I love getting to be around such a wonderful person. I know it's been a little rough lately but god do I love this beautiful person. Thank you for everything, Leila, I know it hasn't been easy but it will get better. Each Day Gets Better. @leilawilhelm12
